So, are you having fun at WikiIndex yet? I think the site has some potential to be a less biased and better-run (i.e. better-sysoped and -bureaucrated) site than [[RationalWiki]] and [[RationalWikiWiki]], and yet could serve some of the same functions as those sites in providing coverage of the wikisphere and the people in it. The question is whether we want to limit pages here to just being a paragraph or so about each wiki, along with a template with a few useful parameters; or whether we want to give more than just the most cursory of descriptions.

:Weird that you would compare WikiIndex to those sites, one of which was a joke site about a joke site and is defunct, except as bits and pieces were preserved by you and others. | |||
:WikiIndex could indeed provide coverage of the "wikisphere," but the issue would be how. You want to do it with ad hoc wiki editing, "anyone can edit," which is somewhat natural, and doomed to failure. Didn't work in the WMF wikis, what makes you think it would work here? | |||
:You could easily start a site that is just what you want. However, your tendency is to mix a possible community goal with your own, such that your own personal and highly idiosyncratic goals dominate, to the extent that if you run the wiki, it's dead or trashed or both. | |||
:You might have done differently at Mises, I have not investigated. Did you? I would guess so, bcause you still have your privileges there. | |||
:And then you stick your tongue out at the courts and the parole officers, so that they toss you back into prison and you can't maintain your sites. "They aren't supposed to do that, it is not against the law to stick out my tongue." Except what you actually do is against the law, or close. And the law is not always fair. "Not fair!" is what kids say. They think it matters. However, the children's book that I read to my kids which has some kids saying that, had those kids be the troublemakers, they pranked the other kids, sat on their lunches, ran into them carelessly and said "Sorry!" when they obviously did not care, etc. Yoko's World of Kindness is the book. | |||
:A real ChildWiki would have resources by and for children and those who care for and support children. Your ChildWiki might as well have recipes for preparing and serving children for dinner, a Modest Proposal, and that is not far from what's on one of your pages. Mayonnaise. Everything is better with mayo. | |||
:To you, children are objects, pawns in a pseudo-intellectual game, "free" if they have access to guns, sex, and drugs, and "oppressed" if they don't. Nathan, that's '''''really weird.''''' That debate over "peace" on the ChildWiki front page, you report in the article here, demonstrates how utterly isolated you are, and thus how isolated any wiki that you dominate will be, unless you change your spots. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 13:19, 12 March 2014 (UTC) | |||
